Current Virtual Reality
They are, desktop VR, Video Mapping, and Immersive VR. Desktop is the most basic, like peering
into another dimension and using the mouse and keyboard to interact through the screen. Whereas
Immersive virtual reality is a full immersion experience where the user wears a helmet or goggles
that project the video, audio is pumped into the room, the computer tracks the movements of the
head, arms, legs, etc. This immersive mode allows you to use your entire body to experience the
realities of another digital dimension.
Virtual Reality has its Pros and Cons. The positives lie with training, for example, pilot training for
commercial pilots and fighter pilots. These examples save hundreds of thousands of dollars and
provide the pilots with the added time needed to become fully certified.
Virtual reality can also be used for long distance communication, education, and even medical
training. However, there are cons based on social distancing, false sense of reality and more which
can be managed through proper education and use of the technology, but must be noted and
accounted for.

There are many examples of virtual reality rides from Disneyland attractions to online video games.
A realistic virtual reality realm exists online with no monthly subscription, it is called Second Life
where you can design your own human, start a business, own property and socially interact with
hundreds of thousands of other people.
If you are interested in fantasy realms you can always check World of Warcraft, EverQuest, or Star
Wars: The Old Republic which is set for release in the fall of 2012. These realms offer you an out of
body experience in a fantasy where flying, magic, and aliens rule so that you may take your
entertainment to a whole new level.

The real benefit of this type of VR training is that when it is done right, it can really enhance a
student doctors knowledge of surgery techniques as they can watch the same procedure from
multiple surgeons where in real life they might only ever see a procedure take place a couple of
times form a handful of different surgeons who would all likely be practicing at the same hospital and
would have their own set way of operating. In fact I have already seen comments about this Hip
Replacement video from doctors in America saying that they approach Hip Replacements slightly
different from the French surgeons seen here.

New virtual reality technology (VR) is announced weekly. Writers describe a broad spectrum of
devices. Head displays for video and cinema are recent entries. The test of whether new technology
meets established criteria for virtual reality will be considered. Immersion and head-displays reduce
time in treatment and healthcare costs as determined by funded research. Applications suitable for
mental health include phobias, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and other anxiety
disorders. Virtual environments embed the whole person within computer generated surroundings.
Engaging attention leads to interactions that accelerate focused learning in novel worlds without
boundaries. This is possible when the user develops heightened awareness. A diagnosis defines a
problem. User interaction with the virtual environment is encouraged for the purpose of learning
corrective experiences. Virtual Reality Immersion Therapy (VRIT) is a system of psychotherapy and
not simply a tool as some researchers unfamiliar with clinical practices suggest.

the
new
zSpace
for
Education enabling real world virtual reality in the classroom. Unlike other VR solutions, AMD
FirePro professional graphics-powered zSpace for Education delivers interaction and group
collaboration through a VR precision stylus to naturally access the virtual experience matched with
a head-tracking computer display in an innovative, all-in-one design.
The zSpace for Education solution features an easy-to-use interface that is natural and intuitive.
zSpace will implement AMDs LiquidVR technology, harnessing AMD GPU hardware sub-systems to
make the virtual reality experience as comfortable and as realistic as possible.
AMD is proud to work with zSpace to power their new real world virtual reality solution, said Sean
Burke, corporate vice president and general manager, AMD Professional Graphics Group. AMD
FirePro professional graphics deliver the features and horsepower required for this innovative new
product which requires exceptional visual performance.

"IC.IDO is the leading software for targeted, interactive visual decision-making on the basis of Virtual
Reality. It provides a platform for a collaborative work of locally, globally and departmentally
distributed teams. Organization will realize efficiency potentials that have not yet been lifted through
stand-alone solutions or central systems. Many global companies use IC.IDO standardized solution
that is easily integrated into existing structures and processes."
"Increased technical complexities, elongated and dynamic supply chains, growing shortage of
experienced workforce, and relentless time and budgetary pressures lead to a complex environment
that challenges the culture and traditional means by which companies make decisions. Rapid
evolution in the capabilities and complexity of design tools and the steady push for digital design where physical products do not exist until most of the design has been complete - erect yet another
communication barrier, especially for participants outside the engineering community."

The Fraunhofer IFF VDTC has laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment to create and apply
virtual models. Virtual reality technologies can be used jointly with the Fraunhofer IFFs experts to
create virtual interactive applications or complete qualification tasks.
Innovative virtual reality technologies can be used to view and analyze product designs threedimensionally and discuss them together with other technical units. Engineers and users can use the
model to interact in the virtual environment and review various states, dimensional accuracies,
collisions and material properties without having to invest much time or money. Processes in
different units such as manufacturing or assembly can be reviewed realistically at an early stage and
their effectiveness, ergonomics and much more can be tested.

In our concept of the Car of the Future, people will use their cars a good deal
of the time for activities that take place in a virtual reality environment
(similar to the Holodeck on Star Trek: The Next Generation), and less for the
physical activity of getting from point A to point B. This will have the direct
outcome that less petroleum will be used, and less pollution will be given off.
A technology of a very special kind of glass will be developed for the cars
front and rear windshields, and front and back side windows, left and right.
This technology will be dual-purpose. The glass will be transparent, allowing
the driver and passengers to see the real physical world, real landscapes and
real highways, as in the Car of the Past and Present.
In addition, the glasses will be video screens, surrounding the driver and
passengers on all sides with video images. What will be played and seen on
these video screens is the central component of a new virtual reality
experience. What one sees through video will be complemented by what one
hears through audio, by climate changes that one senses through the
environmental and climate-control systems, and by the feel of the car
against the road or the terrain, the simulated physical interaction between
the car and the outside as the driver drives and the car moves.
